The Fox in the Forest

A two-player trick-taking game where players vie to win a majority of tricks without overreaching. Standard suited cards decide tricks, while illustrated fairy characters grant one-off powers that can change trump, alter leads, force draws, and affect trick resolution. Players score based on how many tricks they take relative to their opponent; taking too many or too few reduces the reward. Rounds use hand management and timing of special abilities to balance aggression and restraint.

    Not a fan of trick taking games, this one still worked for me. It's a fun challenge to outsmart your opponent. There's a considerable amount of luck involved, too, though.
